From Dec. 10 through Feb. 29<\/strong>, New London native Charles Reyburn\u2019s \u201cThe Seasons\u201d is on display in the lobby and mezzanine. Reyburn is considered oof the rare en plein air<\/em> in southeastern Connecticut, working his paintings through elements of nature rather than in a studio. His style has been compared to that of the impressionists of the past, capturing a scene\u2019s essence in a way that allows the viewer\u2019s imagination to work into the painting.\u00a0Reyburn attended the Rhode Island School of Design in the late 1970s. His work is included in the Lyman Allyn Art Museum\u2019s collection.<\/p>\n

The UConn Health Art Advisory Committee invites viewings from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily.<\/p>\n
